Don’t blame to bots. They will exist one way or other. Instead design your systems in such a way that tending posts are not selected based on rewards only but on
- Number of votes
- Number of views
- Number of comments
- Authors rank
- Rank of voters and commenters
- Number of resteems and ranks of resteemers
- Number of shares on other platforms , views, likes, and comments over there
- AI to rank the content
So u have so much info on the blockchain to find the content that should be ranked on top but unfortunately so far none of the site is using it.
So again don’t blame bots but innovate.
I don't blame the bots. I think the bots have their place on the blockchain.
And I also agree that innovation drives progress. This is often a little slower than most people want but I'm patient.
Personally, I think SMT's will allow a lot of people to experiment with different reward models. A lot will be learned from them when the test net is launched.
i completely agree with you that SMTs will experiment with different reward models
